About Teams

Microsoft Teams is a messaging app for teams where all conversations, meetings, files, and notes can be accessed by everyone, all in one place. It's a place for collaboration and work to happen in the open.

Teams allows you to have private and group chats, online synchronous meetings, and document sharing and collaboration.

Communicating With Your Team

Conversations in channels are visible to the entire team. Team members can participate in conversations, like or save important ones, mention specific people so they see the message, and even edit a file that’s been added to the conversation.
